For seven-year-old Emily Heaton, her royal wishes came true (on her birthday no less!), all thanks to dear old dad!

Jeremiah Heaton not only made his daughter a princess, he made himself a king! Last month, he traveled through Africa to an 800-square-mile patch of desert in between Egypt and Sudan. The land, known as Bir Tawil by the locals, has laid unclaimed after a border dispute between the two nations. So, on Emily’s 7th bday, her dad planted a flag that she designed (four stars and a crown) into a rocky hill and made this land his own!

Alicia Keys was seen cheering her son Egypt on as the three-year-old made his modeling debut this past Monday!

It all happened at the Ralph LaurenFall 2014 Children's Fashion Show In Support Of Literacy as Egypt strutted his stuff in a "grey tweed blazer, puppy print sweater and tartan pants!" Plus, the fact that his contributions to the show was for a good cause made it all the more sweeter!
